Going Analog And Getting Artsy: Programming In The Academic Library, Lisa A. Forrest

Reading One Poet In Light Of Another: Herbert And Frost, James Boyd White
Articles
In this paper I wish both to draw certain connections between Herbert and Frost and at the same time to say something in a general way about the process by which such connections can be made. It is with the latter question that I begin. Once the relation between two writers would have been thought of mainly in terms of "influence." And one might indeed argue that Herbert did have significant influence on Frost's poetic practice — if not directly, for Frost was not a great reader of Herbert, then indirectly, through Emerson, who was in many ways Frost's master …
